Lard buoys Bill Richardson's primary win

Bill Richardson Yankee Magazine’s cookie primary SEE RELATED:

\ Your blogger hasn’t had a chance to make any of the cookies himself, but he predicted Richardson’s cookies would win based on the recipe alone, and this line in particular:\

\ 1 pound lard (a must, no substitutes)\

\ There’s no way other recipes, such as Hillary Rodham Clinton’s use of shortening in her oatmeal chocolate chip cookie recipe, were going to compete with real lard.\

\ Unsurprisingly, Ron Paul won the online polling, with 93 percent of the more than 9,800 votes, with Mrs. Paul’s recipe for apricot-coconut balls.\
